CLEANUP

SHUT DOWN/CLEAN UP

Do not allow paint to build up on WARNING the motor. Overheating of the

motor will result. Do not allow flammable solvents to come in contact with the motor, which could ignite.

NOTE: You will need an extra bucket with cleaning solution, a toothbrush, an adjustable wrench and rags.

1.Lock the gun and reduce the pressure. Turn the sprayer to prime A and shut it off. Unplug sprayer. Leave the suction set in the paint. Refer to Pressure Relief Procedure.

2.Remove suction tube from paint and hold it above a bucket of water or solvent. Leave the return tube aimed into the paint bucket.

3.If spraying with latex paint, use warm soapy water for cleaning. If using oil or alkyd-based paints, use mineral spirits or paint thinner. Do not use these solvents on latex paint, or the mixture will turn into a jelly-like substance which is difficult to remove. Plug the unit in and turn on.

4.Increase PRESSURE CONTROL KNOB clockwise to about 1/3 to 1/2 maximum pressure. This will draw the remaining paint in the suction tube through the pump and down the return tube into the paint bucket.

6.Remove spray tip and guard, washer, and let soak in warm water or appropriate solvent.

7.Place suction tube and return tube in container of water or compatible solvent.

Figure 37 - Save Paint Back To Paint Can.

10.Increase PRESSURE CONTROL KNOB again until paint starts to flow into the bucket. As soon as the water or solvent starts to come into the bucket, release the trigger.

11.Change to clean water or solvent and continue circulating for another 5 minutes to thoroughly clean the hose, pump and spray gun.

12.Reduce pressure and turn to prime A . Trigger gun. Lock gun and shut sprayer off.
